Newsday Website, 21 Oct 2011 - The death last week of Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi means focus will soon shift back to the single most significant threat America is facing: Iran. Officials in the Obama administration are still scratching their heads for an appropriate response to the foiled plot by agents of the Iranian regime to assassinate the ambassador of Saudi Arabia in Washington.

AFP, Honolulu, 12 Nov 2011 - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton urged Iran on Friday to address the latest concerns about its nuclear weapons program urgently and said the United States was consulting with its allies.

AP, Luxembourg, 10 Oct 2011 -The European Union has expanded sanctions against Iran because of continued human rights abuses.
